Theme 183 - Uniform

OK, I acknowledge this isn't the most imaginative of shots, but it ticks the box of "uniform".


This is the uniform I was really trying to get, but couldn't get close enough as we were being moved along by the chap above. It was taken on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh and there was a huge queue for the Military Tattoo (I know, such an opportunity, but I didn't get it - too much rain) and about a zillion coaches were about to come through (allow for some slight exaggeration there!)

I have no idea what this uniform is, but you've 'gotta' love the hat.

It's a pretty cute guy wearing the hat too ;-)

I can well imagine the number of coaches... damn tourists, they get everywhere! :P

Weird hat, for sure!

I like the first shot particularly with the slight tilt and the bright pop of color in his jacket contrasting with the tones of the cobbles and building.

Both are great images for the theme. What caught my eye is that beautiful arch in the background of the second shot.
